While I don't doubt that for a second, the bird flu narrative isn't a distraction. They're actually underplaying it. Bird flu in North America right now is completely and devastatingly out of hand. It's so much worse than what they're portraying to the public.

Reply to comment by AtebYngNghymraeg in TIL that the dogs in competitive agility don’t rehearse the course ahead of time. The courses are randomized at each competition, and the trainers (without their dogs) only see the layout beforehand on the same day. When the dog runs the course they are literally seeing it for the first time. by Pyraunus
Yes show jumping, equitation, hunter, and cross country courses you only get to see the layout the morning of the competition. You usually have a chance to walk the course on foot (without your horse) before you ride it.
Dressage you'll know what you're riding before the competition as those are standardized tests based on the level at which you're riding.

No duh. I'm giving perspective because if the bird flu's out of control in NA it's probably bad in Europe as well.
